#JonathanChait has an expectedly stupid take on #ElizabethWarren. She's not exactly a prize, but Chait's desire to tar #progressive ideas by tying them to her failures is facile and antagonizing to the people you want to be #FutureDemocrats.

Get real, man.

Elizabeth Warren’s Abundant Mistakes

Her critique of moderate Democrats is a mischaracterization of her opponents within the party.

There Are Some Damned Good Reasons Why Joe Biden Moved to the Left

Contra Jon Chait, Biden’s economic progressivism has been both historic and (had he only been able to explain it) good politics.

The American Prospect
@obeto I do not understand why #JonathanChait still has a job.

Hey, #JonathanChait, you wanna know what's NOT hard to square with #DeSantis' 19-point margin in the last election: His ACTUAL reputation as a ruthless authoritarian running his own police state within which he shamelessly manipulates elections & uses state police authorities to suppress opposition & dissent.

'Cuz the rest of us aren't getting our news about DeSantis from Donald F*ing Trump. Jesus, #Chait, for once in your career just step outside & see if it's actually raining.

I see that #JonathanChait is prejudging the #TrumpIndictment before anyone's read it. So very on-brand.

Yay for long articles.
Gnat length articles for gnats.
Long articles for grown-ups.
I, for one, am glad we have intellectuals like #JonathanChait who are finally willing to call out the two hooligans pictured below for the harm they have done to impressionable children for 50+ years.
